Florida Supreme Court orders new trial in $1M lottery disputeReply
Interesting, the article I read stated that even though they bought the tickets at the same place, she bought a set of tickets and he bought a set. Two different transactions, they weren't paid for together. I believe that story because if all the tickets were purchased together, the judges would have had no reason to dismiss his case twice. Based on the other report, he was claiming a share because he said his money paid for the tickets she paid for and that they were still living together. Whi

Texas man charged in Iowa lottery case contests extraditionReply
If you read the earlier article you'll find that it answers most of your questions. Writing a program that chooses particular numbers on a particular day is simple. Since the program's only function would be to draw those numbers on the specified day it wouldn't have any effect at all on the test drawings, which would remain a function of the correct RNG program. Installing it could be as simple as inserting a flash drive, and letting Windows do its usual autoplay to run the executable installat

Standing in line ready to purchase a lottery ticket and overhead... .Reply
Thanks so very much for your post!! I'm curious as to the origin of the formula that calculates the expected total number of duplicates. Did you work it out yourself, or is it an equation that has been around for years? Please know that I'm a layman when it comes to math!! I realize that any explanation you might post could be well beyond my capability to comprehend! Unfortunately for me, you may have to dumb it down a bit, if that's even something that can be done! Would you know if t

UK couple tell of £53 million EuroMillions winReply
Richard Maxwell, a semi-retired consultant in the poultry industry, said he was helping builders move bricks for the garage work the couple are having done when he took a break on Wednesday to check their ticket on the website. From the store in the UK Guardian newspaper. So because Richard Maxwell is a consultant in the poultry industry, that means he is a, a chicken mass murderer . This comment at the end of the Guardian's article is crazy. This is why so many do

My numbers hit 3/4/15, at lastminute I blew off playing- I am devastated- helpReply
I agree that when you play your dedicated numbers with advance play but you miss one draw then you feel naked and vulnerable. If my numbers had come up then I would feel like you do. A Greek philosopher once said that perceived good outcomes do not always produce good results. A bad outcome does not always produce bad results. Life is strange, glorious , and unpredictable for most of us. I think that the philosopher's name was Phury. Another Greek philosopher named Euripides proclaimed

New Show About Lottery Winners Starts Today ...Reply
The article you provided a link to is incorrect. According to Ed Van Petten, executive director of the Minnesota state lottery The multi-state lottery, who organizes the game, pays the mandatory minimum withholding tax. The Minnesota lottery website also states: The Lottery and MUSL are not responsible for additional income or other taxes applicable in excess of the amount withheld and remitted by the lottery that may be due when the prizewinners files all tax returns for the year the pri

IF you have permission from a website, you can copy and paste an image directly into a post.

The best thing to do is create an account at an image hosting site, upload the graphic you want to post in here and use the HTML code supplied by the site in your post.

N.C. Powerball lottery winner claims share of jackpot worth $188 millionReply
Another great story. Blessings to this young mom her children. Happy to see she no longer has to worry about the future of her child with CP. My Granny used to day-sit a neighbor's CP daughter during harvest. It's an all hands on deck disability. Also glad to see she realized her first mistaking in that unofficial announcement. No telling how much trouble that caused her.. hence the security that I read about in another article. Plus she was flanked by a lawyer and financial adviser. You

Bill would allow Texas Lottery winners to pay for anonymityReply
For those of you that have not read this article(Have posted it before), it is from an Attorney out of Dallas. His name is Jim Ross and he claimed a $35 million dollar jackpot for people who won the MM back in 2011. Not a bad read and may provide some insight. http://www.prweb.com/releases/2011/7/prweb8654988.htm I am not a fan of this 5% proposal at all. If it was $10-$20,000,that would be a consideration(IMHO). Typical government official trying to get more out of peoples wallet

It's time the lottery needs to stop releasing a person name and picture when a big win is won!Reply
I read that article shortly after it was published. Well, then that blows the water out of every argument that Texas doesn't allow for anonymous claiming then, huh? Not sure on the particulars, but I believe there is another lottery winner that's done the same here. That's what you should do if you ever win the lottery in Texas. Me? I'm saving my money and investing instead in a little sidearm security if I feel threatened. I'll also get a new phone number and will move, not simply because I'll
